Re: First Annual Official LMA GD Forum Fishing Trip |
Friend, I'm sure you mean no harm, but shark fishing is a very bad thing. Sharks are extremely important in regards to a healthy oceanic ecosystem, but their populations have been depleted to dangerous levels. While it's trued that most of the damage is caused by demand in Asia & commercial shark fishing, we should all practice good habits & do what we can to cause no harm. Do you practice catch & release? If not, why not? Shark is not healthy to eat (high levels of metals & other toxins) & I doubt your paying big $$ to mount them, so what's the motivation to kill them? Please think about it & reconsider.

Re: First Annual Official LMA GD Forum Fishing Trip |
Thank you for the unsolicited advice!
However, I am a commercial fisherman. I earn my livelyhood harvesting tuna, sharks, and other species. Our government permits me to harvest one shark over 54" per day. Its how I pay for the Road Trips and Vault releases.
Why dont you join us next month. You can clean the boat...
